Inkey$ 1 mr wilks 0 / Kumho Ecsta's

[mr wilks]

Putting my hand up & giving mr Inks his reward ( we have had Kumho discussions in the past )
Ive ran my Astravan on at least 12/15 different makes of tyre the last 18months/30k miles ( some winter some summer )
Sometimes whatever fitted & sometimes whatever i chose , Michelin Pilot front / Dunlop Sport Maxx rear 18s were my fav combo but last week i took a Px set of BMW 17inch alloys that needed refurb but had 4 matching set of 205 50 17 Kumho Ecsta tyres all 6mm
So at the weekend i had them fitted to my van alloys & since i have covered around 300 miles & ????????
Staggered by how quiet ,smooth , grippy & well the van feels on them

Glad to hear it Mr.W. Honestly, I was amazed too at the quality and ride when first driven. Slightly tasty in the wet but not dangerously so (think 'traction control half off').

Enjoyed our various Kumho discussions in the past, so I guess we'll now have to choose another subject
